The Ruling on the Remembrance of Allah in the Place of Relieving Oneself
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah honor you, and my brothers, please give us a ruling and may Allah reward you, what is the ruling on saying the basmalah inside the bathroom?
Answer:
This is disliked and not permissible. In the place of relieving oneself, if one enters it, he does not mention Allah with his tongue until he exits, because this is the place of Shaytan, insects, and impurities. So the name of Allah (Mighty and Majestic) is kept pure from being mentioned there. Yes.
